Thanks Nick for your promptous response. SLA is an area code. Since i
am away and have no stata program in my hand, i ccouldn't try to run
it now, but i trust it will work fine.
Cheers

I don't know what SLAs are.

In your case, the row names, originally column names, are
apparently all numbers, so you should be able to loop over the
names and store them in a variable (_not_ column) something like
this:

or Break to abort obs was 0, now 95
. save t1,replace
file t1.dta saved
Crude Adjusted Left Right
.0144418 .0213993 .0160632 .0267354
.0242798 .0409689 .030746 .0511917
.0123417 .0186174 .0149574 .0222773
.0097357 .0142612 .0108197 .0177028
.0260393 .051086 .0389991 .0631729

The saved file looks like that, but what I like is to have a column
named as SLA, corresponding to the SLA codes in the original data.
Could any expert give me some hint?
